Superb, WH (Heeres) trade- or special-career insignia, being a very detailed- and/or hand-embroidered example on darker-green-coloured wool, as was intended for usage by a: 'Steuermann' (ie. enigineer boat-pilot or helmsman)

This is a truly very attractive example of a WH (Heeres) so-called: trade- or special-career insignia, being a neat and very detailed- and/or hand-embroidered example on darker-green-coloured wool, as was intended for usage by an army-related: 'Steuer- mann' (enigineer boat-pilot or helmsman), that comes in an overall very nice (IMO virtually mint-/unissued and/or (IMO) never tunic-attached-, condition. The patch is beautifully executed in very shiny, silverish-coloured braid and is a superb example of the employed craftmenship of the days (see pictures). It is moreover nicely 'backed' with black-coloured paper but is void of any maker-designation (see pictures). The badge shows some minimal age ie. staining simply caused by decades of storage only. This is actually a scarcely encountered 'Pioniere'- (ie. engineers-) related patch, that is IMO very much underestimated by the collectors'-community. Simply a very attractive example of this desirable 'Sturm-Pioniere'-related arm-patch!
